Available for maximum capabilities of 7.5 and 15 metric tons, the Z16A tension load cell is available in two different versions which feature an accuracy class of D1 and D3 according to OIML R60.

Manufactured from stainless steel, the new Z16A from HBM is hermetically sealed and achieves an IP68/IP69K degree of protection.

Corresponding adapters such as the M36x3 adapter from HBM are available as options for simple mechanical integration. Separate legal-for-trade cable lengths are also available in the 6-wire configuration for added flexibility, which can reduce the cost of installation, without affecting the class accuracy of the load cell.
